The TabDy in Ancient History.

The Egyptian name for the cat was
chaou, or. according to some Egypto-
logists, maou, the latter name being
initiative of the animal cry. The ia
miliar name OF ''PHss," apparently,
has also come to us from the Egyp-
tian.
The origin of the word .tabby" is,
perhaps. not generally known. 1t is a
corruption of the Turkish Utabi (old
French tabs, Spanish t4bi), a particu-
lar kind Of waved silk imported from
Bagdai, and So manned after the local
ity where If WAS made.
One of the most ancient representa-
tiUns of the cat is to be found in the
Metropolis Of Thebes. which contains
the tomb Of King Hama, Of the eleventh
dynasty. \ statue III the king repre-
sents him Standing erect, with his fav-
oritc cat. Boubaki, at his feet.
Piuttrch, i'll hi treatise on isis and
Osiris" states that the image of a she
cat wa placed ut the top of the SIS
trum a. an emblem of the moon; part
ly, perhaps, because she moves about
by night, but chiefly because her eyes
dilate and grow large 1T the full Of the
moon, contracting again at the moons
decline.
Cats are mentioned in a sanscrit
manuscript 5000 years old, and in
Egypt their antiquity is known TO be
even greater, as shown by monumental
drawings and the discovery of aheir
mummied bodies in very ancient tombs.
The Egyptians not only took great care
Of their eats while alive. but honorcd
them when dead, going into mourning
and shaving their eyebrows.
Ii has been conjectured from Il paint
ing taken from Il tomb at Thebes, and
now i'll the British museum. that the
cat was taught by the ancient Egyp-
tians to retrieve. The painting in
question depicts IN Egyptian fowler
gliding in q i~iaj-bottomed boat through
Il reed bed and throwing sticks at Wit
ter fowl, apparently with H. much skill
